Not Giving My Heart Away

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This dress that you used to love Hanging on a hook it reminds me of The first night we danced to that Wilco song But now it waits like a broken phone Not knowing it's been left alone While the rest of the world moves on and on [Pre-Chorus 1] And even now It hangs empty, you're not around I can't take it down My body won't move until my will is found [Chorus] And even if I save myself And get out from under this shell Might make my life a living hell But I'll never go back again Not gonna focus on it anymore Doesn't matter what it was before Nothing I can say that will make her stay 'Cause I'm not giving my heart away [Verse 2] The leaves come falling and I think about All those times you took me out The cold rain foreshadowed how it could go wrong I need you to complete my day Convince myself it will go away How did it work before you came along [Pre-Chorus 2] And even though It's a memory that kills me so I must say no So I decide to let it go [Chorus] And even if I save myself And get out from under this shell Might make my life a living hell But I'll never go back again Not gonna focus on it anymore Doesn't matter what it was before Ain't nothing I can say that will make her stay 'Cause I'm not giving my heart away [Bridge: Rob Benedict, Jason Manns & both] Resurfacing face the day And feel the light on my face A little bit of grace Rebounding, life resetting Feel the kick in my step Releasing you from my space Find it in my heart I've found my way [Chorus] And even if I save myself And get out from under this shell Might make my life a living hell But I'll never go back again Not gonna focus on it anymore Doesn't matter what it was before There's nothing I can say that will make her stay 'Cause I'm not giving my heart away Away Away
